i called the clinic number and they have a msg that gives you the number to call. i figured this way you talk to him. he may tell you to wait till tomorrow, but always better to be safe...im going to ask him myself to do an upper gi on me to check my band -

when i met him i had the severe heartburn. but he didnt even have me go to the ed. he met me at the door and took me to a room there and did the unfill. even if he doesnt have you go tonite at least you can talk to him and let him know whats going on -

because if you cant get water down, you shouldnt wait. if you cant swallow water you wont be able to swallow anything and so you shouldnt wait. if you are that swollen you are too tight vicki. i had to call him once on the weekend and he met me at the hospital to take some fill out. its not good that you cant swallow water -
